Walk a mile in my shoes
Ed Miliband wants to make sure he is properly attired ahead of tonight’s debates, so much so he sent an aide to Clarks shoe shop to buy not one but two pairs of new shoes.
It was up to store assistant Laura Roberts, 22, from Eccles, to help pick out the Francis Air and the Glenrise Walk brands for the Labour leader.
According to the Manchester Evening News each pair is priced £65.
Laura told the paper: “She was really nice. She was on the phone and I said ‘that sounds serious’ which is when she explained she was here for the debate and was getting Mr Milband’s shoes for tonight.
“I helped her pick the two choices. They are both two of our best-sellers. They are a popular comfortable working shoe.
“I’ll be watching tonight to see which one he chooses.”
